>>11465648The cat I grew up with for 8 years died when I was, well, 8. Had some kind of incurable disease that other cats could catch, but were either immune or infected by it. He was really young, used to jump around, play with my other 2 cats, see what he could climb on, and cuddle with me on the bed. Then when he got sick, he stopped being active. Used to lay by the heater vents and not move for an entire day. My mom told me he was in constant pain and that he could live his life in constant agony, or we put him down.

>>11465895You will be able to eventually. Their memories and personality is a simulation of a real, learning personality.

At first we'll join them in their world.

Then they'll be linked to physical bodies and come play in ours. Regardless of the location we'll be together and love them. Our digital friends will be a blur and a new generation will grow up knowing these digital ponies from a young age.

>>11466680Pleas, no. I can't deal.>>11466718Well, I know they have Hot Topic Vinyl figures of him that use Dr.Whooves as his name, and that big collection book of information has him under that name as well. Then again I've read that that book also contradicts things presented in the show itself, and people do tend to make mistakes with those kinds of things.

>>11466746>They found four-legged robots were easier to balance>Cats and dogs seemed too small for the size they wanted to use>They wanted it to look like it could hold a conversation but didn't want it to pretend it was human>Ponies seemed non-threatening and children found them approachable. >They just had to reinforce them to make sure children could ride them

>"Ponies just call me "Doctor" for some reason. Not rightly sure why. I sell and repair time-pieces - what about that job screams 'doctor'? It's not like you need to go to school for 20 years to learn it..."

>>11467016Hope you enjoyed your prize. You can enter again after 3 months and/or 5 new entries at derpibooru, whichever comes first.I really hope it's the 5 new entries that comes firstHave a nice day!

>>11467106Within five years.Someone is probably going to give VR another try.

Augmented Reality will be much more interesting, when a virtual pony has a physical position in the real world that you can see walk around and interact with all of your electronics synced up in your house's wireless systems.

You could go tell your pony to lock the door and set the alarm.

At first glasses will be required, then contacts will be a gimmicky alternative. Finally you'll be able to wear something over the ear that beams the hallucinations straight into your brain. This is where it'll get interesting because they'll be able to cause other sensations, like the feel of her mane brush up against your leg as she walks by you or the plop of her weight when she plops down onto the couch and lays on your lap.

>new girl at work>starts talking about trans pride and how she has a tranny friend>I ask her if she is a tranny>"No, but I do use xe, xer, and xeir pronouns, so please don't use her and she around me.">laugh>"I'm not doing that.">go back to work

She gives me the stink eye at work all day and tells me I'm oblivious to my privilege.

>>11467236>xe, xer, and xeir pronounsFucking special snowflake pronouns.Respecting trans people means using the male or female pronoun they prefer, not making up special individual pronouns to refer to their male-to-alien or female-to-bat-to-cheese-pizza identity. Those making up their own pronouns are just slapping trans respect and activism in the face for attention.

>>11467343Just wanted to let you know I'm still working on it, and sorry it's taking so long. Have that problem where I can't focus on a drawing long enough to get a thought going. But I still plan on getting it done for you.

>>11467483Can he at least have a British accent? I think ponies in Ponyville would take that as a misdirection that he's well-educated because he "sounds fancy". It would help perpetuate the rumor that he's a doctor.

>>11467458I was going to say that I would call people by whatever they want to be called and would have no problem with that since it doesn't effect me, but I kept on calling Kraut out when he was posing as Tofu.

>>11467427While that may be true in most cases, like I said I can't really focus easily. I only have a couple of circles down. But don't worry, I'll figure something out. Other than that, can I get a reference pic to a stallion's nose?

>>11467236This reminds me of a really fat chick I used to work with. She told me she was Jewish and that she wouldn't eat Pork because she was Jewish, but that her sect of Judaism believed most of the events in the Tanakh never happened and are in fact metaphors, that God is love, that everyone has their own way of finding God, and that God will accept everyone who finds Him in their own unique way. It was so hard not to laugh in her face.

>>11467436Well of course not, but if you talk to somebody else and refer to them in the wrong pronoun, they get offended.For example, if you're talking to somebody about an MTF individual, she would want you to use the pronoun she prefers, in this case, female pronouns. If you refer to her in male pronouns, she sees it as ignoring her gender identity, thereby offending her. Even worse is if you refer to her with gender neutral pronouns (they, their, and worst of all "it"), because she would see it as you declaring that she's less human than you are.If you meet somebody trans, just be on the safe side and ask, ain't too hard.

If it were 0r0 it'd be his ugly rabbit thing half fucking a pony while shoving a grotesquely overdrawn anus into our face while wearing a fedora with the words UMADUMADUMADUMAD lining the edges of the picture and a billion different coloured layers applied to everything.

>>11467498Gravity and pliancy. Only when they're being actively supported in something like a bra or bikini is when they take on a balloon shape, and even then there's going to be bulge and spilling. Straps, edges, and anything else that doesn't completely cover the breast should "sink" into it.

>>11467870Butts tend to be firmer, as unlike breasts they are defined first by the muscles (glutes and such) and then any layers of fat. They also change shape depending on the position of the legs. I think they're very complex anatomy and I actually get a lot of joy out of portraying them, particularly in seated positions.

>>11467992W-well yeah, I guess maybe. I mean, not like I'm....Wait, a-aroma? You mean smelling his balls? That's pretty weird, man, I don't know. I mean, he might get the wrong idea, like I'm, you know, INTO him, or something. Which I'm not.

>>11467940I'd hate it if a girl told me she was into anime, because i know i'd probably end up blurting out that my two favorite anime are the anne of green gables anime and Strike witches. I have no idea how i could explain either of those to anyone.

>>11468615Also i should mention that capsule was mostly metallic not white.

And just imagine the sun is just off the frame in the background, so you're only seeing the shadow side of the capsule (it would have been complete darkness since there would be no atmosphere to scatter light onto the shadowed side)

>>11468636I credit Calvin and Hobbes with a lot of my sense of cartooningA lot of basic ideals were stressed in Watterson's self-commentary, the ones I've held most dear including:*A funny enough premise can make up for boring art (and vice versa)*A funny situation is more amusing than a simple punchline*Character is the soul of humor*Exaggerating expressions is a necessity*Ambiguity does not need to be resolved

>>11468835I fully intend on making it, I just have no time to do it right now. I barely update Palette right now, so needing to maintain two askblogs is out of the question right now. After bronycon I should have enough free time to work on it.

"ooh, God, i wish. i'd drop your ass in a heartbeat. not that i don't dig you, but, y'know. like, you've probably got a celebrity you'd cheat on me with, right? i got mine. but for the record, if you ever did cheat on me with her, she's dead."

>>11469159Yeah. The thing is that when he does that, windows shuts down his speakers, so he can't set speaker audio for music or whatever. Meaning he can only stream with his mic at this point. Once we fix this we can get him drawing pon live in no time.

He plugged in a headset but skype is coming through the headset, but his sounds won't.

but she spent all that time helping Big Mac get through his teenage years. she was the only hot girl within ten miles, you think he didn't spy on her? you think she didn't ever notice him there? sure she did. but she didn't stop him, because she LIKED it.

Ok guys so I've got an idea for a fic. Twilight is going into heat, so she asks Rarity for advice. Rarity decides the best solution is to take care of herself, and lets her help herself to Rarity's dildo collection. Twilight takes one home but she's too nervous and awkward to use it, she's scared of how big it seems and is afraid it will hurt. So she looks up solutions and finds a spell in a book that seems like it will help, but she puts too much juice into it and falls in love with the rubber horsecock, riding it basically every moment she has alone in the library. Slowly her friends notice she's turning into a slutty mare and eventually they confront her in the library and catch her in the act, so she pulls out an army of enchanted dildos and gives all her friends the dick, and they all have a huge neverending orgy and they all live happily ever after.

>>11469343The same way I always do it. Engineer a situation where The Doors' "Hello, I Love You" starts playing, start singing along, and then slowly start looking into her eyes. Rarity's as good as mine.
